I'm unable to install any of the provided bin files of this thread. I can copy them to the root of my Kindle Basic 2 (2016 Black) (KT3) but the [HOME] -> [MENU] > Settings -> [MENU] > Update Your Kindle entry isnt available (greyed out). If I connect the Kindle again to my linux machine the bin file is just gone - nothing is there. I dont get it.

IMPORTANT: Remember that on FW >= 5.5.x, using MRPI is REQUIRED to install custom packages!
I'm sorry. I must have missed that notice. So I copied the bin file to the root of the kindle usb mount and ejected it and hit KUAL Booklet -> Helper+ -> Install MR Packages but it says No MR packages found. Any suggestions?

Yep: read MRPI manual first.
.bin files must NOT be copied to kindle root, but in a mrpackages subfolder that you might have to create manually

I have a hack screen after install, but when i'm trying to install my own ss i'm seing a picture as in the last mode, i think. And after restart i can see hack screen, but only once too. then last screen again.

Read the directions included in the archive.
Install the package.
You will need to install the Python package for some of the features also.
Read those directions also.

Hi, I've just updated my PW2 to the 5.9.2.0.1 and have successfully installed the new booklet version of KUAL.

However, I am having some problems reinstalling the screensavers hack. When I try to install it I get a package script failed error as per the screenshot on the link below. I am using the latest screensavers hack from the snapshots thread.

Python goes through and installs correctly it seems.

Any help greatly appreciated! Thanks
